The best things Jesus had to say, seem to have been said by people before him. The golden rule comes to mind, which has roots in China. I don't really care if the slavery was different back then. It is wrong to own another human being. Period. It was not all indentured servitude. Plus no one should tell a slave to continue to submit to a cruel master.
You should not drown people for criticizing christianity, despite Jesus commanding people to tie millstones around their necks and throw them into rivers lest they lead a lamb astray.
He wasn't really that great of a guy. He was a tool. He wasn't a savior, because not throwing people into a fire that you started yourself, as punishment for not meeting a standard that's purposefully set impossibly high, does not count as saving them.
And yet christianity has been used as an excuse to hold down women and other ethnic groups, so either it is in there, or Jesus sucked at communicating with his followers. Despite saying he loves us, he apparently also thinks we're worthless without him. Our good dees are as filthy rags, and there is no good in us at all. The message pretty clearly states that he apparently loves us, despite thinking of us as worthless pieces of shit.

Quote:Jesus taught that we're all equal in God's eyes. He never said that woman not equal to men, but that in the family and the church they have different roles. He definitely never stated that black people should be the property of white people. He did say that people should not have sexual relations with people of the same sex, but also that sex for everyone should be within the married state. Either this means he hates everyone or the said there's a proper situation for sexual relations.
